AS unexpected must have be,
the reply Of the husband whose

A rather different meaning from

Circuit court has recently ad'
journed in Greenville, a saloon
town, and see what the Times Of
that city says of the crime COM
mitted in Washington county, one
of the largest counties in the State,
and a county specked with saloons.
We call the attention Of our
readers to this, because some of
our friends and some newspapers
take such pride in citing to de.
crease IN crime in counties where
there are no saloons. We do this
in friendly way, too. But please
read the nature of the crimes in
the Greenville court and what the
Times says is the cause Of the de-
crease-"ag good sheriff and a good
court.n etc.-Winona Advance.

[Yazoo City Sentinel.
A gentleman Of this city, q few
days after the question Of lighting
our city with electric lights waa
started, wrote to q friend In Aber
deem, asking for information. He
received the following reply, an0
handed It to us for publication:
Aberdeen, Miss. May 18th, 1857
Dear Sir:-Your favor Of the
18th inst, was received yesterdsy'
/ win proceed . answer ysar IN
qmries in the order pronounced
without recitlng them. The cleo
trio light is of inestimable benefit
to Aberdeen. We could not dis
pense with 1t. To mention the
advantage would cover too much
ground. The feeling of, pride
among the people alone, woult
justify the expense. We have ter
lights, each two, thousand candle
power, which costs the subscribers
sixty.iive cents per night. The
city pays for eight, the Mobile ant
Ohio Railroad, and Illinois Zen
trail for one each. No additiona
levy has been made to defrsy the
expense. We pay fifteen mills cit,
tax. Our population is about
$500.
l venture to say we have fewel
insects than any town In the State
that ia In our houses. There are
millions of every variety of insects
attracted to the lights, but thu
brilliancy is so much greater thar
lamp lights, they never obtrud'
themselves on individuals.
We use the Brush system: oul
company tried the Jenny, Thomp
son aud Houston, but greatly pre-
fer the Brush. ~ - ~ " y
Now, l have answered as best
could your questions. Let me OF
fer you a suggestion. Do not at
tempt to run the light by the city
let a few persons, not more thar
five, own and control il. First &c
the city pledged to subscribe TO
so many lights and release fron
taxation, say for ten years. Em
ploy a good man to run it, AM
your people would subscribe I,
double the expense rather thai
dispense with 1t. ftfs Bts

CLEVELAND IN THE WAY.

The Oil City Blizzard, speaking of
Congressman William L. Scott, asks
What Democrat is more prominent
Why would not he make good Presi-
Dental candidate?" The only answer
to these two important queries may be
found in the name, Grover Cleveland.
Mr.. Scott is one of the able men of the
nation, and one of the comparatively
few Democrats who could go into the
White House without exciting ,appre-
hension as to the kind of administra-
ton he would give. Everybody would
know at the outset that Mr.. SCOTS ad-
ministration would be honest and pure,
that it would be able and progressive,
and that it would be democratic in the
broadcast and purest sense of the term.
The present executive has no better or
more trustworthy advisor than Mr..
Scott, whose broad craftsmanship and
personal and political purity are
acknowledged by enemies and admired
by friends.
But the barrier in the way OF Scott s
election to the Presidency is Mr.. Cleve-
land, who blocks the road to the White
House against all ambitious Democrats
and Republicans. If the President shall
go along as he has gone for the past
year, steering clear of breakers and
devoting himself to the welfare of the
nation, his will be the only name
mentioned in the convention next year,
and at the polls he will have a walk
over. Only blunders which would be
idiotic if not criminal could prevent the
nomination and election of Grover
Cleveland in 1888. and it is not likely
that the President will be guilty OF such
plumbers.

BRIGHTER SIGNS.

The Edmunds law and its wicked
follower, the .Edmunds-Tucker act,
have wrought incalculable injury to the
Territory in material sense. We are
saying nothing of the hardships and
sufferings they have occasioned in indi-
vidual cases. The community in gen
eral has been hurt, and every man in it
has been more or less injured, the non
vlolators as well as the violators of the
statutes. By far the greater portion of
this incidental material harm is charg-
able to the manner in which
the Edmunds act was enforced. There
was vindictivenessi in the. administrators
of the law; they were filed with malice
and actuated by hate; they did more
than their duty and spread consterna-
ton in the community; by their
cruelties and viciousness they inspired
dread, biternesst and distrust; they
devised and followed methods which
could have but one effect, and that de-
structive of material prosperity, for
there can be no prosperity in a COM
munity threat ned and disturbed as this
one was year or two ago.
While all around US there has
been wonderful progress industrially,
while there have been blooms" and
consequent development north, south,
east and west of US, it has been with
difficulty that Utah has held here own
and avoided a retrograde movement.
When one looks back through the past
five years, and considers what the COM
munitY has had to contend with, he is
surprised that actual wreck has not
come upon US. A less determined,
a less devoted, weaker COM
munlty would long since beeL gone to
the wall and permitted destruction
to assert itself. 1t is highly creditable
to our citizens that they have stood up
against the evil influences operating
for their overthrow; it proves the
excellent, sturdy material of which the
Utah people are composed. In spite of
the opposition, in defiance of the
wicked and powerful combinations
against them and against the peace,
good order and prosperity of the Terri
tory, the people have held their own
and are again on the upgrade. Every
where appear signs and evidences
Of progress and material development J
When malice shall have entirely |
disappeared from the administration of |
he law, and hate shall have given way
% faithful performance of duty on the
part OF officials, the confidence which
vas shaken by the vindictive, wicked
conduct of government representatives
Will return and be established, and
hen the excellent qualities of the people
S State builders will assert themselves
or the grandeur and glory of the long
ffiicted country. Utah is bot nd to be
reat, in spite of her enemies, an I the
ldications are that after the terrible
truggle of the past few years, she is
ntering an era OF unexampled and
ratifying prosperity, leading directly
D that greatness.

for information, concerning the where
abouts of the Fourbit League and its
collector of Internal revenue. The lat

communication, in which he virtually
confesses that the League is thing of
the past and that he is as full of gall

In THIS connection a regret may be
expressed that there have been occa-
sional departures from the reyered in
strument by those who have been
charged by the ipeople with the sacred
duty of seeing that the document is not
violated. 1t is matter for sorrow that
more than million people in the Ter
ritories are not enjoying the rights and
privileges which the Constitution sought
10 convey to and confirm in all the citi-
zens of the Republic. 1t is not credit-
able to know that laws have been en-
acted and enforced contrary tn tho
provisions and restrictions of the Con-
stitution, and that considerable num-
Der Of American citizens are denied
legal rights and forbidden persone,
privileges which the Constitution m
dertooksto preserve irrevocabIy to sIl
However, that these things have been
done, that evils have been practiced, is
due to no failure of the Constitution
but solely to the impositions, the wick
edness and the cruelty of men, If the
Constitution could have made all men
as perfect as it is, there would be con
tinual peace and happiness everywhere
over which the inspired instrument
spreads.

A QUESTION OF POPULATION.

Mr.. Rodgers, well known as the publish
er of the Topeka directory for a number OF
years, has Just completed taking the census
of this city, and finds the actual population
In the city and suburbs to be 80, TAI. His
former reports have been very conservative
and below those of the state. The number

Topeka claims a population of $4,000.
There is nothing in the way of lie that
Tcc,c,eka does not claim. --Atchlson Globe.
The capital of Kansas has over $4,000 in
habitants and no one knows this better
than the Globe man.-Topeka Democrat.
Topeka has probably a population OF
81, 900 to $4,000, and next to Wichita is
biggest, as she is next to Wichita the most
populous city in Kansas, and there is nc
use in the Globe man or any other man
kicking over the matter.

HERE IS FUN AHEAD.

Whenever one party begins to discipline
its members and there is prospect for
general row. the other side can roll over in
the grass and laugh as the fight proceeds
There is good deal of uneasiness in
democratic circles in relation to the doc
trine of protection, and already the signs
point to delightful family quarrel. Sew
eral blows have been struck and sparks
are flying from the Bourbon flint. When
the party published its last platform, re-
publicans said it was two faced, meant for
protection or free trade or both or neither,
as locality and occasions should deter
mine. But talk of that character was de-
nounced by every Democratic speaker and
writer as Republican lies, Mr.. Randall, OF
Pennsylvania, is protectionist, SO are his
constituents. Mr.. Randall is Democrat,
also, and 50 are good many Of his cons'it-
uents. Mr.. Carlisle, of Kentucky, is 6
free trader, and Henry Watterson is his
prophet and spokesman. These two gen
tlemen take the free trade side of their
party platform and Mr.. Randall takes the
protection side Watterson fights Randall

WHY THEY ARE ENCOURAGED.

The Kansas City Times says the oppo
sition to the Salvation Army in Kansas
is perhaps due to the fact that Kansas did
not originate the scheme. The fact OF the
matter is that the people of this state have
advanced in religion until they are beyond
the point occupied by the Salvation Army.
We have heard of old people in these army
meetings stating that il was the same old
religion that was preached forty years ago
There is no doubt that the army are saving
class of Missourians who have emigrateo
here that would never be brought under
the influences of higher order of preach
ing, and for that reason they have The
support of some of our best people.
